Clark, the wealthy young woman who committed sujcide in the McNutt Hospital some months ago, was commenced yesterday in the probate court before a jury. The contest was brought by Alice Ann Hart and Mary E. Carter, sisters of the deceased, who ask that the will be set aside on the ground that Miss Clark at the time she made the will, the day before she took her life, was not possessed of her sound senses, and that for many years prior to-her death she had been under the influence of Dr. W. F. McNutt.-“The will bequeathed all of the $300,000 estate of the deceased to Grace E. Strohn, her sister, and named Dr. McNutt as executor. The only witness examined yesterday was Rev.

WORK ON THE SALT LAKE ROAD IS TO BE RUSHED Harriman Is Eager to Have the New Line Finished Inside of Ten Months. A meeting of the directors of the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake road is to be held in Salt Lake City this week, when it is expected that the contracts for the final construc- tion work on the new road will be awarded and definite plans made for making the through connections from | the latter city to Les Angeles. It has been ured that at least would be neces: fifteen has heen advised by his chief engi- neeer, William Hood, that this work can be accomplished easily in much shorter time. As a result of this report Harriman has given orders to rush operations. A year ago, when it was announced that Harriman was behind Senator Clark in the building of the San Pe- dro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake road, and that the transfer of a portion of | the Oregon Short Line to the control | of .the Clark company was simply a move on the part of Harriman to aid the new line in getting quick terminal connections, the Senator was prompt with a denial of the report. Singe then, however, it has been learned that Harriman holds more than 50 per cent of the new company’s stock and is taking an active part in all the arrangements for the completion of the line into Los Angeles. The work of construction is being performed under the direction of a commission composed of W. H. Ban- croft, vice president and general man- ager of the Oregon Short Line, and Chief Engineer Hood of the Southern Pacific Company, as the representa- tives of Harriman, and J. Ross Clark and H. Hawgood, manager and chief engineer respectively of the Salt Lake road, acting as the representatives of Senator Clark. Chief Engineer Hood of the South- ern Pacific Company, owing to the vast amount of work that devolved on him in the building of the Lucin cut off and straightening out the line of the Central Pacific, had little time to devote to the construction of the Salt Lake road until recently, when, with Chief Engineer Hawgood, he made a thorough inspection of the southern end of the route of the new road, over which rails are yet to be laid. He has made a report in which are incorporated many valuable sug- gestions, anil it is said that these will greatly aid the directors in arranging this week for the early completion of the road. | e e _ Steamship Company Incorporates. The Harold Steamship Company was incorporated yesterday with a capital stock of $250,000, of which $1250 is subscribed. The directors, each of whom has subscribed $500, are Robert Dollar, Robert J.

Alexander B. Garnett was arraigned before Judge Lawlor yesterday on the charge of murder for shooting and killing Major J.- W. McClung in the apartments of Mis. Lillian Hitchcock- Coit at the Palace Hotel on November 25. He pleaded not guilty. Attorney W. D. Grady, who repre- sents the defendant, informed the Judge that a demurrer to the infor- mation might be entered and he ask- ed permission, if it was so decided, to withdraw the plea. The Judge con- sented and continued the case for a week. The District Attorney is now in no hurry to have the case set for trial, as it has been definitely ascertained that Mrs. Hitchcock-Coit, the most material witness for the prosecution, is on her way to Paris. Her testimony given at the preliminary hearing be- fore Police Judge Fritz will have to be read to the jury at the trial. —_—— New Sheriff’s Deputy.
